Beskrivning
Salinas Nuestra Señora del Rocío is a flat open area with both active and disused saltpans. Best covered by car (which can act as a hide) with short stops. The route along the river is bests tackled on foot as the track is very poor but be careful not to cause excessive disturbance and be aware that the route can be very exposed and hot in late spring and early autumn. This is the must-visit site in Cadiz province for wading birds.
A good track takes you through working salinas which attract numerous waders particularly during passage when you can expect good numbers of spovsnäppa, kärrsnäppa , sandlöpare, skärfläcka ,styltlöpare svartbent strandpipare etc. smalnäbbad simsnäppa is regular in small numbers. Stay in your car to make the most of photographic opportunities. Huge numbers of större flamingo present (and mindre flamingo has been recorded) plus Silkeshäger and ägretthäger (increasing). Passage also brings svart stork some of which winter. A good site for bronsibis. It is also an excellent site for långnäbbad mås and terns such as småtärna skräntärna and skäggtärna. In autumn and winter Fiskgjuse are unmissable. brun kärrhök, dvärgörn & Brun glada are frequent and it's one of the few areas in Cadiz province where röd glada can be regularly found. For many years it has been possible to turn right at the T-junction (see map) to reach a small white building (a pumping station) but this route is sometimes gated and can only be approached on foot. If you can reach the pumping station it can be particularly attractive for gulls, terns etc.
Instead of turning right at the T-junction by going left you reach the Guadalquivir river. Park on the track before you reach the river and walk north parallel with the river. Away from the wetter salinas check the salt tolerant low vegetation along the river for glasögonsångare (summer) and dvärglärka (resident). gulärla (Belonging to the Spanish race) are numerous. Bushes here may also hold migrants (e.g. rödstrupig sångare). Keep checking for raptors on the far side of the river as there's an outside chance of seeing a spansk kejsarörn here. It's possible to walk further along the track by the river than shown but this route will get you most of the species with minimal effort.
